De retour d’une dangereuse mission humanitaire, Ginny erre dans New York en s’interrogeant sur le sens de sa vie. Une fois encore, elle s’apprête à fêter seule Noël et ressent âprement le vide laissé par ceux qu’elle a perdus trop tôt. Elle croise alors le regard bleu perçant d’un jeune garçon. Transi de froid, affamé et manifestement sans abri, il doit avoir une douzaine d’années. Ginny lui offre un repas chaud et l’installe chez elle, le temps de lui trouver un centre d’accueil.
C’est le début d’une relation unique qui changera à jamais la jeune femme. L’adolescent, d’abord sauvage, s’ouvre peu à peu à elle jusqu’à lui révéler son plus grand traumatisme. Ginny a maintenant une raison de se battre mais aussi une raison de vivre. Et elle n’abandonnera pas avant d’avoir obtenu justice.
En abordant ici des sujets actuels et difficiles, Danielle Steel livre un roman poignant et palpitant qui la place au sommet de son art

Stone Junction

Language:

Estimated availability:

Daniel, the main character, goes through a series of teachers for the first part of the book, who teach him a number of skills that flirt with the supernatural. Mystical is probably an appropriate word. And these teachers dispense knowledge in all sorts of pithy little lines. This book sets its own terms, existing somewhere in the lands of political fantasy--if such a geography exists. Here lives an underground and ancient, loosly-organized collaboration among those who have always lived outside the law. This loose confederation of anarchists, magicians, gamblers, alchemists--and others who live in a counter-economy//counter culture--has its own codes of honor which easily substitutes for rules.

This organization and the characters that interact with it are the protagonists of this lively tale. And the anarchic assumptions by which these folks measure their actions are a big part of the charm of this book. I was drawn in from the start and held attentive until the end. This book is fun and worth your time.

The story of Oliver Twist - orphaned, and set upon by evil and adversity from his first breath - shocked readers when it was published. After running away from the workhouse and pompous beadle Mr Bumble, Oliver finds himself lured into a den of thieves peopled by vivid and memorable characters - the Artful Dodger, vicious burglar Bill Sikes, his dog Bull's Eye, and prostitute Nancy, all watched over by cunning master-thief Fagin. Combining elements of Gothic Romance, the Newgate Novel and popular melodrama, Dickens created an entirely new kind of fiction, scathing in its indictment of a cruel society, and pervaded by an unforgettable sense of threat and mystery.

Les frères Karamazov I

By:
Fyodor Dostoïevski
Type:
Book
Year:
1968
Language:
French (France)
Estimated availability:
Today

The Brothers Karamasov is a murder mystery, a courtroom drama, and an exploration of erotic rivalry in a series of triangular love affairs involving the “wicked and sentimental” Fyodor Pavlovich Karamazov and his three sons―the impulsive and sensual Dmitri; the coldly rational Ivan; and the healthy, red-cheeked young novice Alyosha. Through the gripping events of their story, Dostoevsky portrays the whole of Russian life, is social and spiritual striving, in what was both the golden age and a tragic turning point in Russian culture.

This award-winning translation by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky remains true to the verbal
inventiveness of Dostoevsky’s prose, preserving the multiple voices, the humor, and the surprising modernity of the original. It is an achievement worthy of Dostoevsky’s last and greatest novel.
